.....or, Macassar Defender.
This is my regular "Defender" model for personal carry, but just a little longer than the normal 5 1/2 inch blade at 6 1/4".
This thing had me in the shop early this morning! I truly loved watching it take shape, and just KNEW that the Macassar Ebony had some secrets to reveal! By the time I got it down to 1500 and then buffed out, it was like a piece of glass. I am so glad I have a bunch more of it.
This thing is truly a pleasure to hold and fondle.
Blade was forged down from heavy 5160 stock and given a selective hardening heat treatment.
Stainless steel Take-down hardware.
Macassar Ebony handle to impress.
Thanks for letting me share!
This will be available at the Ohio Classic Knife Show Oct. 31st.
